Whistleblower Holiday Cheer 2016!


Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Romney’s at the door,
Standing there with cup in hand,
“Please sir, may I have some more?”

Who will be the chief at State?
Mitt or Dave or Rudy?
How ‘bout tough guy JR Bolton?
Isn’t he a beauty?

Kellyanne, she’s our man!
Smiling like a shark,
Oh what fun it is to see
Her ever present snark.

Hillary, gets shellacked!
Trump has doused her flame,
Except for Comey, racists, assorted haters, Fox News, deplorables, poor messaging, Russians and Wiki leaks,
She freely accepts the blame.

How did he win? How did she lose?
Did she have disdain
For forgotten heartland’s pleas,
While he felt their pain?

Will we ever see the wall?
Mexico pays the bill?
Or was that just campaign red meat.
A huckster’s ‘sugar pill’?

The game is done. We must move on
And think of lessons learned.
Demonizing couldn’t halt
Millions who’ve been spurned. 

I challenge you to reach inside
And summon your good sense
Is President Trump scarier than
President Mike Pence?

Joy and Peace!

Becoming a Part-Time Physician

Next month my schedule will change.  I will henceforth be off on Fridays with my work week truncated to Monday through Thursday.   I am excited to be enjoying a long weekend every weekend.  And while the schedule change is relatively minor, this event does feel like an important career moment for me.  It is the first step on a journey that will ultimately lead beyond my professional career.  It is this recognition that makes this modest schedule modification more significant than one would think it deserves.  As some readers know,   my current employed position has been a dream job for me.   Prior to this, I was in a small private practice, which I loved, but was much more challenging professionally and personally.   My partner and I ran the business.   Working nights, weekends and holidays were routine for decades.   On an on-call night, if I slept  through until morning, I felt as if I had won the lottery.   And w...

When Should Doctors Retire?

I am asked with some regularity whether I am aiming to retire in the near term.  Years ago, I never received such inquiries.  Why now?   Might it be because my coiffure and goatee – although finely-manicured – has long entered the gray area?  Could it be because many other even younger physicians have given up their stethoscopes for lives of leisure? (Hopefully, my inquiring patients are not suspecting me of professional performance lapses!) Interestingly, a nurse in my office recently approached me and asked me sotto voce that she heard I was retiring.    “Interesting,” I remarked.   Since I was unaware of this retirement news, I asked her when would be my last day at work.   I have no idea where this erroneous rumor originated from.   I requested that my nurse-friend contact her flawed intel source and set him or her straight.   Retirement might seem tempting to me as I have so many other interests.   Indeed, reading and ...

Will Smarter Lawyers End Frivolous Lawsuits?

How do you know if a lawyer is any good?  Of course, they've all passed the bar, but now their profession is lowering it.  While most of us strive for excellence, and raise our children to value this virtue, prominent legal educators are establishing a new quality intitiative for their profession.  Who says that lawyers can't reform themselves?  Perhaps, we physicians can follow their bold example and raise the credentials of our pre-medical students.  I’ll present the facts. You be the judge. I have written a dozen posts on tort reform on this blog, which always generate spirited and adversarial retorts from attorneys and their supporters. They accuse me and other tort reform advocates of carrying water for insurance companies. They repeatedly point out that I know nothing about the legal system and are unqualified to opine on its flaws. They deride me when I argue that effective tort reform would reduce the practice of defensive medicine, despite the re...
